Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe ceiling in the bathroom needed attention, painting over cracked plaster because of leaks from above doesn't cut it. Neither does sticking sticky labels over the cracks work. Dropped some coins at the side of the bed, one of them rolled under so I went to look for it, my god it was disgusting. Thick with dust and god knows what else under and behind the bed. Found one guy a bit creepy in terms of his approach. Wouldn't like to stay here again, even if I was paid.
It was warm and the bed was comfortable

United Statesour room didn’t look like the pictures online, i accept it might have been an older room but as we paid for the “upgraded” version it would’ve been nice to have one as advertised. we did find a couple ants in the room and one of the windows were missing a curtain. bathroom needed attention visually but everything worked (didn’t use shower as was only a stopover) and the bathroom door didn’t shut/open without a decent amount of force behind it. room was also very close to the road and was awoken to road noise more than a handful of time which took away from quality of sleep.
location was nice and quaint, didn’t try the breakfast

United KingdomThe Jersey Arms has just been taken over a couple of months ago, therefore, perhaps the very dated decor and bathrooms reflect the previous owners; the staff asked us what we thought, so we did give them our opinion and we hope they take this on board, as the hotel is a little gem waiting for some tender loving care.
Good location, comfortable bed, and very welcoming staff

United KingdomLots of the photos online are from 3-6 years ago. This led to false expectations for the restaurant and breakfast. The breakfast was very basic (cereal, only cows milk on offer no alternatives, toast with jam, and frozen berries with yoghurt). Pastries would have been a nice addition as well as fresh fruit. A bit of tlc to touch up paint work and replace broken furniture (wardrobe) would have made a big difference to the overall feel of the stay.
The room was large and the bed was comfy and big.
